Hey everyone,

I have recently completed an install of Windows 7 Home Premium on my main PC. I have one unknown device in device manager and I cannot for the life of me find a driver! This wasn't a problem in Vista, it never needed a driver so I can't understand what it is.

After looking up the device in Everest, I get even more confused...

Device Properties
Driver Description: Unknown
Hardware ID: ACPI\AWY0001
PnP Device: Intel Quick Resume Technology

I don't have an Intel Processor, nor an Intel chipset. After following numerous Google links I thought it may be AMD's system stand by software, but the only driver I can find for this is XP/2000 and won't run on 7.

Any ideas?
 
Windows Update isn't picking anything up, although there could well be a Vista driver on the Asus website for it, I'll have a butchers.
 
It's the AMD Awaymode driver, you can download it from most places on the web or it may be on your motherboard driver CD. If you can't get it to install try running the driver setup in compatability mode for vista.

It's worked for me on several PC's
